It is important to check your tires using an accurate tire pressure gauge,
which can be purchased at your tire dealer or auto supply store.
Under inflation can overload tires. Check the inflation pressure every
month, including for the spare tire, to make sure it’s up to specification.
Check it again before long trips or when carrying extra weight.
Look for the manufacturer ’s recommended inflation pressure listed on
the Tire Information Placard usually located on your vehicle’s door edge,
door post, glove box, or inside the trunk lid.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR SAFE TIRE INFLATION
•If you must inflate your tires when they are hot, add 4 pounds per
square inch (4 psi) (28 kPa) above the recommended inflation pressure
specification. Recheck the inflation pressure when the tires are cold
and adjust to the recommended inflation pressure shown on the
vehicle’s Tire Information Placard.
• Never release air or nitrogen from a hot tire in order to reach the
recommended cold tire pressure. Normal driving causes tires to run
hotter and inflation pressure to increase. If you release pressure when
your tires are hot, you may dangerously underinflate your tires. If your
tires lose more than 1 pound per square inch (1 psi) per month, the tire,
the valve, or the wheel may be damaged. Consult your authorized
Toyo Tires dealer for an inspection.
• Overinflation can cause the tire to be more susceptible to impact
damage.
• Overinflation or underinflation may adversely affect vehicle
handling.
• Remember to check your spare tire. Consult your vehicle Owner ’s
Manual for the correct inflation pressure and use of a “temporary use”
spare tire. The inflation pressure specified for a spare tire is typically
different from that specified for your regular tires.
• Use valve caps to keep valve cores clean and clear of debris and to help
guard against air leakage.
WARNING!
Never inflate a tire unless it is secured to the vehicle or a tire
mounting machine. Inflating an unsecured tire is dangerous. If the
tire bursts, it could be propelled into the air with explosive force
and cause serious personal injury or death.

4. A tread life of up to 3,000 miles (4,800 km) can be expected dependingon road conditions and your driving habits. To conserve tire tread life,
the spare should be returned to the trunk as soon as the standard tire
can be repaired or replaced.
5. Because the YOKOHAMA high pressure spare tire was specifically designed for your car, it should not be used on any other vehicle.
6. Do not use snow chains on your YOKOHAMA high pressure spare. This could cause damage to your vehicle.
7. When the tread wear indicator appears on the tire, replace it only with the same type spare tire.
8. Check the tire’s cold inflation pressure monthly and maintain at 60 psi (4.2 kg/cm2) even when not in use. Do not inflate over 60 psi.
9. The YOKOHAMA high pressure spare tire should not be used with any other rim nor should standard tires, wheel covers, or trim rings be
used on the YOKOHAMA high pressure spare tire rim on which the
YOKOHAMA high pressure spare tire was originally installed.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
All tires require owner maintenance regardless of how well a tire is
constructed. Operational damages such as punctures, impact damage, cuts,
incorrect inflation, etc., may cause tire failure and subsequent personal
injury and/or property damage. Simple operational and maintenance
practices, as listed below, will reduce the chances of tire problems.
Tire Inspection
Visually inspect your tires frequently for any tire damage such as scrapes,
bulges, cuts, nails, irregular wear, etc. resulting from operation. This must
be done immediately after any known or suspected contact with an object
in the road, a pothole, road irregularity or after severe braking. Refer
these conditions to a reputable tire service center for repair or replace-
ment. Never drive on a tire if such conditions appear.
Tire Loading
Never exceed the maximum vehicle load limit listed on the vehicle
placard, tire information label or in the owners manual. Be aware of the
load carrying limits molded into the tire’s sidewall and do not exceed
those limits. Maximum load can only be carried at the maximum cold
inflation pressure indicated on the tire’s sidewall.
